Star Trek Online - Class Action Suit @ Ten Ton Hammer

Ten Ton Hammer reveals that PR firm Kohnke Communications Inc. has brought a class action suit against Perpetual Entertainment citing breach of contract, fraudulent transfer, fraud, and various other charges as its reasons.

The complaints stem from allegations that Perpetual sold valuable assets like the Star Trek Online (STO) license to P2 Entertainment, Inc., a thinly veiled yet separate corporate entity, before executing the Perpetual ABC or "Assignment for the Benefit of Creditors" (a liquidation mechanism allowed by states like California as a less expensive alternative to the extensive litigation surrounding bankruptcy). The case could have drastic implications for future of the pre-alpha Star Trek Online title.
